Résumé

Thymic epithelial tumors (TET) are rare malignancies that may be aggressive and difficult to treat. In the advanced setting, systemic treatments may be delivered as primary therapy before surgery or definitive radiotherapy, as exclusive treatment when no focal treatment is feasible, or in the setting of recurrences. RYTHMIC is the nationwide network for TET in France. The objective of the study was to describe the modalities and analyze the efficacy of systemic treatments for patients with advanced TET included in the RYTHMIC prospective database hosted by the French Thoracic Cancer Intergroup (IFCT).
